YouTube bans terrorism training videos.

Terrorist training videos will be banned from appearing on YouTube, under revised new guidelines being implemented by the popular video-sharing site.

The Google-owned portal will ban footage that advertises terrorism or extremist causes and supporters of the change hope it will blunt al-Qaeda's strong media online campaign.

The move comes after pressure on the internet search engine from Connecticut Senator Joseph Lieberman.

In addition to the ban on terror training videos, the new YouTube guidelines includes bans on videos that incite others to commit violent acts, videos on how to make bombs, and footage of sniper attacks.

A couple of days ago when I uploaded a couple of my terrorist training videos, as part of my ongoing campaign to bring down the government with the use of repettitve beats and mind altering substances, I was asked to upgrade the uploader with 'Google Gears' (forced actually because without the upgrade I wasn't able to upload my anti-government propaganda). Google Gears adds to Googles tracking arsenal by gathering data on the videos you have uploaded.

A find it rather sisnister, although I have nothing to hide, google already check my emails for keywords and then bombard me with advertising, how long before the information we so readily allow this company to have access to is turned against us?

Jaysus, i thought we had it all sorted out.

I can't see it doing much to promote terrorist recruiting but the loan nutter may find it useful.

I first read about making fertilizer bombs in a Stephen Leather novel. Then when the Bali bombing occurred I knew immediately that a bomb of that size should have leveled several city blocks.

By not mixing the ingredients properly they created a bomb that burned rather than exploded, virtually every one in the vicinity was terribly burned rather than suffering the usual blast injuries.

They had all the ingredients right but were too lazy to do the job properly.

I was making weedkiller and sugar bombs back in the 60's when I was a kid. But then we were self made terrorists none of these wimps that need to go to terror training camps, we were born naturals.

They were deadly weren't they, especially packed into a bit of 3/4 inch water pipe.

Chlorate of soda that stuff was . NaClO3.

Can't buy it now for some reason.
